- Get ready for a Game Changer.
Tonight's guests
Ally Beardsley!
Brennan Lee Mulligan!
- Hiiiiiiiiiii.
- Lou Wilson.
- Hey. Cha cha ching cha cha ching-
- Erika Ishii!
- Ooooohhh!
- And that's not all
Grant O'Brien!
- What!
- Katie Marovitch!
And last, but not least
Raphael Chestang
- Yeah, I'm back.
- He's back!
- And your host... me!
I've been here the whole time.
This is Game Changer.
The only game show where the game changes every show.
I am your host, Sam Reich.
I am joined today by these seven -
Count 'em!
Seven lovely contestants.
Now, you all understand how the game works?
- No
- It's the point.
- That's right.
Our players have no idea what game it is
they're about to play.
The only way to learn is by playing.
The only way to win is by learning.
And the only way to begin is by beginning.
So without further ado, let's begin
Players, this is without a doubt,
the most talent we have ever had
on the Game Changer set at once.
Unfortunately, it's time to say goodbye
to one of you.
- Oh. What?
- It's gonna be me.
- Already?
- Players.
It's time to vote.
- Oh, I knew it, I knew it!
- I don't really know what's happening.
- Sam says we're going to eliminate someone
right off the bat.
People are whispering to each other.
It's like, oh, it's Survivor.
We're doing Survivor.
- This is Survivor, for sure.
Which sucks because now I'm not
a good sport about it.
I love Survivor so much.
I wanna win.
- Ally. You're up.
- And what are we voting for?
- I can't believe it
- Samuel.
- Can we vote for anything?
- Yeah.
- Can we strategize amongst each other?
- Yeah.
- Wait, Ally
- What did you vote for?
- I'm voting for Sam.
- Yes.
- Brennan.
You're up
- Yeah.
- If Sam gets eliminated.
- Then one of us has to host.
- If Sam gets eliminated, Grant hosts 100%.
- You strategized amongst each other players.
But if you try to break by game,
it's only gonna blow up in your face.
- Oh no.
Lou!
- This is hard.
- Stay strong.
- There are too many of us for there
to be a true prisoner's dilemma.
And I trust you implicitly.
- I trust you implicitly
- What about me?
- I trust you implicitly. - You trust me?
- No, we can't be forming alliances already.
- You can't do that.
You can't do that to me.
- They've done studies of the prisoner's dilemma.
It's only hard in abstract.
People solve it all the time in real life.
- Erika. It's your vote
- Okay.
- Katie, if they all vote for Sam,
and you and me vote for Lou,
we could really get some...
- Holy shit.
- Now we're playing the game.
- Do you need more
to vote for Sam than what just happened?
- I'm voting for Sam.
100% voting for Sam.
Don't worry.
- Grant O'Brien.
- Oh my Lord.
- What am I gonna do?
- Just don't do that.
- That's how it ends?
- Yeah, exactly.
That's how it ends. - ... it's a conch doing
- Katie Marovitch. - ... I think, yeah.
- I think it's conch but I could be conk.
Well, any case people on the internet
will scream at me either way.
So that'll be great.
- Raphael Chestang.
- Come on, Raph.
- He's back, baby
- This is what we play for.
- Voting?
- In a way, it is.
- It's what George Washington played for.
It's what Thomas Jefferson played for.
- Wooden Teeth.
- All right. You're finished.
- Bye Sam
- Fuckin' toast, my dude.
- So who'd everyone vote for?
- Sam.
- I voted for Sam.
- Hey, if we vote for Sam all day...
- Players.
I will now read the votes.
- Uh oh.
- First vote.
Sam.
Does not count.
- Oh, come on.
Oh, come on.
- Okay. Okay. Okay.
- The whole day is just voting.
- Second vote.
Sam.
Does not count.
- You're a write-in candidate!
- We're gonna have to vote again.
- Third vote.
Sam
Does not count.
- Interesting.
- Fourth vote.
Sam.
Does not count.
Fifth vote.
Sam.
Does not count.
- Uh oh.
- I wonder what the next one's gonna be.
- Sixth vote.
Sam.
Does not count.
- Okay at least I know I trust all of you.
- The first person voted out
of Game Changer: Survivor...
Katie.
- What?
- Who did it?
Who did it?
- I swear it wasn't.
- Katie. I would never do that to you.
- Who did it? You're dead to me.
- As God is my witness,
I wrote down Sam's name.
- Nobody did that.
No one did it. It's Sam
- He's turning us against each other.
That dirty little man.
- Yes.
- Do you have any last words?
- I think it was you.
And I think you're a bad man.
- You may leave the stage, Katie.
- You're gonna have to get security.
- Bye-bye!
Bye, everyone.
- Bye, Katie.
- The second I figured out
that it was like an elimination thing.
I was like, I'm always gonna be first to leave.
I'm only gonna be here for five minutes.
- What you have, there is a fart machine.
An advantage that you can give
to someone else that you want to see win.
- Interesting.
- That's right players.
You are in our first ever elimination game.
In it, you will face challenges,
battle it out for immunity,
form alliances,
and if you're clever,
be the last person standing
here at the end of the day.
This is Game Changer: Survivor.
- Oh my God. Knockout, Watchout, Dropout. I love it.
- The winner of this episode
will receive two round trip plane tickets
anywhere in the world
they would like to go.
- Wait. What? Really?
- Yes.
- No, no, no, no.
This is how it begins.
- Anywhere in the world?
Maldives?
- Sure.
- Madagascar?
- Keep going.
- North Korea?
- Ooh,
- Got you there, baby.
- I've been on Game Changer before.
The prizes aren't bullshit.
And so pretty quickly, I'm like
Well, I'd like to win.
- Six players left.
An even number,
which good for forming teams.
- We are gonna get buffs.
- This is insane.
- Ally.
- Fuck. I haven't watched Survivor.
I don't know...
- Oh my God,
this is kinkier than a buff.
- Come on, I want it.
- Come on, come on.
- Oh no!
- Oo.
- I don't like this.
- Wow.
- Okay, it's like team Ireland versus-
- The racial makeup is...
- This is sort of a Cook Islands callback.
- Okay guys.
Let's do this for white people.
- Can I request a transfer?
- I would like to also transfer.
- Good. Here we go.
Here we go.
- Blue team.
What is your team name?
- Don't you talk.
- Don't.
It's not up to you.
- Team Friendship?
- Team Friendship, question mark.
- Yellow team. What is yours?
- We're Martin Luther King's Dream.
- Wouldn't it be awful if we were to lose?
- That's what I was going to say.
- You were gonna suggest
Martin Luther King's Dream for us?
- But I got silenced by my teammates.
- Players, it's time for your first
immunity challenge.
- Oh my God.
- Here's how it's gonna work.
Standing in front of your stumps,
you will try to make each other laugh
using funny sounds.
- Sorry guys.
We've all seen my episodes of Breaking News.
- It's okay.
- If you laugh, you are out.
If you make yourself laugh, you are out.
Let's have everyone stand.
You will go as I call your name.
The first team to have all three players
knocked out will be forced to face elimination.
Ally.
- Um, a little help, please.
- Raph.
- That was a laugh from Ally
Ally, you may sit back down on your stump.
- Brennan
- Help me, please.
I need help.
I'm just a little guy.
- Lou.
- Fuck
- Of course I was gonna be bad at this.
This was designed to eliminate me.
This is like saying there's a height limit
for the show.
We all know how tall I am.
- Even before Lou spoke.
Next up,
Erika.
Damn it!
- Erika made herself laugh.
- It wasn't me.
I didn't make myself laugh.
It's it's looking at Brennan
and then just like seeing it all play out
in his face.
- We're all the way back
to Raph.
- Well done, Raph.
Brennan.
- Raph is out.
- Oh no.
- Just looking at Brennan's face for too long,
I just crumbled.
The two best men for that challenge,
were the two that were left standing.
- A heads up between two powerhouses.
- Yeah.
- Brennan,
Nothing from Lou.
Next, the ball's in Lou's court.
- Who's is it?
Is it mine?
I just want it back.
My knees.
My poor knees.
- Was that a laugh from Brennan?
It was close.
- Close
- Brennan.
- The meatball fall off
my little plate of spaghetti.
This spaghetti too slippery
for the little meatball.
She pop off so fast.
The strong wind blow all the noodles off the plate.
Ragu on my niece and nephew.
- Of all the things,
I did not expect a tiny sad Italian man.
- You didn't expect stereotypes from this team?
Okay.
- Lou.
- Please let me win.
- Yes!
- I did the best I could, man.
I did the best I could.
Got these two dumb crackers to either side of me.
Beardsley and O'Brien.
Fuckin' fold like cheap suits.
Lou, there's not too much you can do about.
He is a Titan.
- We had a dream!
- We had a dream.
- Martin Luther King Jr's Dream wins,
which means that Friendship?
will face elimination.
- Yeah,
- But before they do,
I will be bringing each of you one at a time
upstairs to a green screen for confessionals.
While I do that,
it would be a great time for you to conspire
with your fellow players.
Form alliances and do whatever you need to do
to stay in the game.
- Have you formed alliances with anyone down there?
- Sure. I've formed alliances with everybody.
- Little alliance, huh?
One,
two.
Okay, good. Two alliances.
- Right now.
Everyone's making alliances as bits
that I think are actually just alliances.
I think everybody's doing jokes
like we're on a team now,
but also I think we're all just on teams now.
- Alliance! They did an alliance.
I'm gonna get you.
- There's joke alliances
that are just regular alliances now.
Should the three of us?
Should we finally make this thing happen?
- Yeah
- Do I understand these alliances?
Do I understand?
- No.
- I have never seen Survivor.
I don't think I've ever actually seen
an entire episode of a reality show
in my entire life.
- Let me learn you a thing or two about Survivor.
- Okay. Okay.
- Hopefully, I think I can lean
on some of the people who are a little
more nervous about the like competitive elements
and assure them that I've got their back
and that I'm gonna take care of them
and we're gonna make it together.
A white person can't win.
- It's just gonna be hard to beat Brennan. Imma tell you.
- That's the thing.
Brennan is always the one to beat, but...
- Why do you think three of us are talking right now?
Use them and kind of keep them
in a stable like sheep.
And I'll cut them loose at a moment's notice
whenever need is be.
- They're trying to sow the seeds
of distrust amongst us.
- Yes.
- I don't like that.
It's us versus Sam.
- And the rest of the crew.
- True.
- And the crew?
- Well, maybe not the crew,
if the crew wants to be in on it?
- That's what I think.
I think we should lead the revolt of the crew.
Hey, my guy! What are you doing right now?
What you know about an uprising, dog?
- We will bring you in on this.
We will cut you in.
- So who do you think wrote down Katie's name?
- You.
You. Absolutely.
That was not any of us, right?
Or, just say if it was.
- No.
- There's a thumb on the scale, for sure.
- There was a sleight of hand.
- I think so, too.
Right? Okay.
- Sure.
- Something foul is afoot.
I do not suspect a single one
of those people out there.
Those are all good hearted comedians.
They're not that good at lying.
- You know, Sam's a trained magician
and I think Sam might have done some
sleight of hand to put Katie's name in.
- Your name, had an underscore underneath it,
which is a little bit of flourish
that a hassled comedian doing something on camera
would not put a beautiful little flourish
under the name.
That screams art department to me.
That screams someone who actually knows...
- Right now we have a big vote.
Me, a Survivor fan.
Brennan, a huge Survivor fan.
- Yul's one of my favorite winners of all time.
- Yeah. Cause he's so humble
and he has like an actual,
like good head on his shoulders
- So sweet.
- Grant, not a Survivor fan.
- Are they talking to us?
- Oh my God. We're talking to each other.
- I asked them who they were gonna get rid of.
And they both looked at Grant very quickly.
Like super quickly.
- I should lose.
'Cause I'm single.
So I don't have anyone
to use two plane tickets on.
- Oh my God, Grant.
- So if you guys wanna vote me out, that's fine.
- Clearly, if you've watched Survivor,
the move is to not vote Grant out
because he doesn't care
and get rid of your biggest competitor.
- I'm not gonna lie.
Brennan's the only person
that I'm actually afraid of.
- This is good B roll for
if people are talking about me in another scene.
You can cut to me sort of eating sadly
on set here by myself.
That could be helpful.
I'm not a good prospect for anybody.
My reputation in competitive games
makes me impossible to form a true alliance with.
Now, you can probably pull back
into a wide and make me look really small
in the composition.
- Oh man.
What have we got ourselves into?
- No idea.
But do you want an alliance for real?
- Of course.
Why do you think I brought you out here?
- I walked to go to the patio
and Lou and Brennan were out there.
So, I just listened at the door
and they made an alliance for the end.
- Don't tell anybody.
- No, this is us.
- Done deal.
- Hello.
- Hello Ally.
What did you hear out there?
- Oh, nothing.
Oh, couldn't help overhearing
because I was right on the other
side of the door.
- Oh, what'd you hear?
- Whoa.
Sick.
- Oh shit
- Wait, let's work out.
- One
- Bring it straight up. - Two
- Yeah, this is is good.
This is an easy weight for you, huh?
- Is this what it's gonna be like
when we all go to jail?
- I walked up to Grant and went it's Brennan
and Grant went, Okay.
So maybe that's what we're looking at,
but also maybe that's not very fun.
Maybe I don't wanna go cutthroat right away.
Like obviously
I'll get voted out at the next turn.
'Cuz everyone knows that I'm going for blood.
So maybe I should just play it chill
and vote Grant out.
I don't know.
- Before she left
Katie gifted you a fart machine.
- I'm gonna win.
Katie, I love you.
We're going to Europe, baby.
I think we should send Grant home.
'Cuz that's the easiest.
'Cuz he would like to go home.
But strategy wise,
I think we both know,
it would be best to get each other out right now.
- Let's go to the patio and talk about how we'll vote.
- Oh my God.
- Let's figure it out.
What are you thinking?
- I think I'm gonna vote you out.
- Cool.
- I'm also down to play it
not cutthroat immediately.
This feels exhausting.
- I feel totally groovy
however you wanna play it.
- Okay. Woo.
- We're back from the break.
And it's time for Friendship?
to face elimination.
Blue team, please step out.
Players, we have just had a confessional break
where some conspiring could have taken place.
The question for you is,
was there any conspiring?
Ally, I'll start with you.
- A bunch of different people were conspiring.
I think there's a lot of ways
that this could go
and I'm deciding to be really cutthroat
in voting Brennan off.
Which I've told him.
- Leaping right into it, Ally.
- I don't like this posture that I've taken,
but here I am.
- Now for those of you at home who can't see this,
the rest of our players are standing by
off stage watching what's occurring now.
There are only three people left at this vote,
which does make it easy for two players
to conspire against a third.
Brennan. How are you feeling right now
listening to what Ally's saying?
- Not great.
I would say that I'm coming into this game
with a pretty distinct disadvantage,
which is just the character persona
in the CollegeHumor,
cinematic universe that I play.
There's a whole Game Changer episode
about me being hyper-competitive.
So, anything I do to make moves to defend myself
is just further proof to people
that I should be gone at the nearest convenience.
So, I'm not holding my breath.
- Now Grant,
not being a regular Survivor watcher,
I wonder if you realize what a position of power
you're in right now.
Ally is coming after Brennan.
Brennan has no choice,
but to go back after Ally.
You have the power
to swing this one way or the other.
- Mm.
- Without putting too fine a point on that.
Your reasons for voting out Brennan
would be obvious.
The guy is familiar with Survivor.
He is known to be a strategic force.
And you have that opportunity now,
whereas you might not have it later
in the game.
- Hmm.
- What would be the reasons to vote off Ally?
- There would be none.
- Welp.
- And with that,
it's time to vote.
Lou, can you hit that yell more time?
- Whoa
- That's the alliance.
- Ally, you're up.
Grant.
Brennan.
I will now read the votes.
If anyone has a loop de loop
and would like to play it.
Now would be the time to do so.
- What is a loop de loop?
- I don't know, but I'm imagining it's a...
- This is a fucking loop de loop.
- Oh my God!
- Do you think I fuck around?
- There something back there?
Lou sees an immunity idol in the plant.
- That's totally a thing.
- Congratulations.
You have found a hidden immunity loop de loop.
- The second I see that, I go, okay.
That thing I noticed on the urn earlier
is for sure an idol.
On the urn I notice a decoration.
The decoration is in the exact style
of the Game Changer set.
And if I had to bet dollars to donuts,
I'd say that's not a coincidence.
I rushed back stage to find Ash and Carly,
our wonderful assistants.
Sorry guys. Excuse me.
And I pull this off the urn.
This of course is an immunity idol.
This is not the immunity idol
that I'm gonna use tonight.
This is the immunity idol I'm gonna use tonight.
You think I don't know
my head's on a fuckin' spike
the minute I let my guard down?
I go full Russell Hantz.
I go full Rick Devens.
What's up, my dude?
- My man's got that loop de loop!
- Loop de loop.
- I don't know what just happened.
How did he earn this?
- This is an immunity loop de loop.
Any votes cast for Brennan will not count.
- Oh my God.
- Wow!
- You think I'm gonna fuckin' roll over?
You look me in the eyes Beardsley
and say Brennan I think it's your fuckin' time.
It'll be a cold day in hell,
when I go out like a fuckin' chump.
I'm not a fucking fool, Sam.
- I am at a disadvantage
by not knowing the rules of the game.
Oh my goodness.
- Alright.
- First vote
Brennan.
Does not count.
- Wow.
- Second vote.
Sam.
Does not count.
Second person voted out of Game Changer: Survivor
Ally Beardsley.
- Whoa, whoa.
- Obviously
- We agreed to vote for Sam.
I am a man of my word.
- This sucks.
- Ally, before you depart,
any last words?
- Thank you for having me.
- Well.
- I got got.
The loop de loop got me.
I think the worst part is that
I got voted out with this in my pocket.
He is playing like this is Survivor
where it's all like strangers.
But we are actual friends.
So, I will leave this to Brennan.
- Well, I think it's fair to say
that this vote has been
a Game Changer: Survivor game changer.
See you next time.
- Next time on Game Changer: Survivor
Five players remain.
Who will be the last one standing?
- What fun we're having.
